Formed in 1995 in Madison, Wisconsin, Bongzilla is a cornerstone of sludge and stoner metal. Core members Muleboy, Spanky, and Magma built a sound that centers on heavy riffs, down-tuned grooves, and lyrics inspired by cannabis culture. After a reformation in 2015, the band renewed its touring presence and released a string of acclaimed records. If you’re into pounding rhythms, hazy guitar tones, and a no-frills approach to metal, Bongzilla offers an authentic listening and live experience.
